Skye (1972-88)

Is there anyone out there with knowledge of how Loganair operated its scheduled services between Glasgow and Skye (1972-88)? Was there an NDB at Broadford in those days, or was the whole operation VFR?
There's still talk of reinstating commercial air services to Broadford but an NDB wouldn't hack it these days and the withdrawal of EGNOS in the UK makes any sort of PBN design at Broadford virtually impossible due to the surrounding terrain. It would be interesting to know how it was done in the 'Good Old Days'!
